Don and his ouster from CNN – the person behind it

Tim had supported Don when he was fired from CNN suddenly. The insider revealed:

“Don and Tim have built a life together that has seen them through thick and thin,” 

In April 2023, Don got the pink slip. The ousting came after Don had made a rude, unpleasant, and controversial remark regarding GOP primary candidate Nikki Haley’s age in the earlier part of this year. During a breakfast with Don, Discovery CEO David Zaslav blamed firing Don on former CNN CEO, Chris Licht.

But the New York Times recently reported that it was David who told Chris to fire Don. The article added that Don was already skating on thin ice even before this Nikki Haley incident occurred. The media outlet stated:

“Firing CNN’s prominent Black gay anchor could be a public-relations nightmare and immediately taint Mr. Licht’s tenure,”

“Mr. Licht sought to protect Mr. Lemon by moving him from his 10 PM slot to a revamped morning show,”

It was David who insisted that Don should be fired. The news article further read:

After continuing pressure from Mr. Zaslav, Mr. Licht announced on April 24 that CNN and Mr. Lemon had ‘parted ways,’” 

“Neither Mr. Zaslav nor Mr. Licht personally broke the news to Mr. Lemon,”

“although Mr. Licht offered to meet with him after they told his agent. That meeting never happened.”

Revealing the double standards of David, the outlet revealed:

“Mr. Zaslav and Mr. Lemon subsequently met at Barney Greengrass, Mr. Zaslav’s usual breakfast place on the Upper West Side of Manhattan,”

“Mr. Zaslav said he was sorry for the way Mr. Lemon had been treated and blamed Mr. Licht for the outcome.”

Don had suspected something fishy when he tweeted:

It is clear that there are some larger issues at play.”

And Chris was sacked in June 2023.
